  • Comment on Precious Movie Review (2009) by Tony Vahl
    Man, thanks for the great review and info. I love that it could be argued that this movie is targeted at social workers and teachers who practice LaME. On a side-note: I hope to have that indexing turned around in 36 hours at the latest. Lots going on tomorrow. Moving furniture for wood floor dude Grandma hired for us (Christmas gift). […]

  • Comment on Moving and Migrating from Google Blogger FTP to WordPress by Damian Hospital
    Thanks..I always wanted that comment follow-up plugin but always forget about it when I'm online. You'd think WordPress would have put that in their default code by now...How are you checking to see if it really redirects? Check Justin again and try to follow his steps. I think you may have got in too deep with the move and created a unique situati […]

    Brothers too, it seems! What a pain this is. I loved your adaptation of the Hitler vid. I'm getting all my posts fixed up, but it looks like the WP import tool didn't pick up all my reader comments, which is a total drag. As far as the redirects go, I can edit with htaccess easily enough, so I copied the your rewrite code for the archives into htac […]

    WOW!
    A quick and efficient list for when I need a fool-proof excuse.
    I’m forever indebted.

    How about these for the holiday season.

    The wife needs the car.
    The store is about to close.
    I need to get gas.
    I need to pick up groceries.
    I need to let the landlord in.
    Medical appointment.
    I need to pick up my supply of HGH.
    I need to stop at the ATM before I pick up my supply of HGH.

    if none of those excuses work,
    then you could always fall back to “Plan-B”

    which is:

    step 1:
    open a can of vegetable soup swig a mouthful of it, but dont swallow it.
    *(it is very important that nobody sees you do this or the plan will backfire on you)

    step 2:
    act woozy and dizzy and wait for someone to ask you if youre alright.

    step 3:
    At that moment spit all of it out on the floor or desk while making a gutteral noise.

    step 4:
    cough two times immediately afterwards for added affect.

    Theyll send you right home, no questions asked.

    Thats a little tip from me to you.

    Always have a can of vegetable soup with you and remember Plan-B kids.
    Whether youre on a bad date, dont want to give a speech, or you just want them to let you off the airplane-
    its a surefire way out of any uncomfortable situation when you just want to go home and the best part is it works every time.

    I’m speechless…now I’m laughing. :-) I’m very anxious to follow your plan one day, R.A.W. Thanks for the excellent addition.

    Nomar Garciaparra announced his retirement and said he’s DONE. The truth is that Nomar has been done since he hit the age of 30 back in 2004, and he had been sliding before that, which is why he was chased out of Boston.

  • Roadkill: Dead Raccoon, Death, Rebirth, End of Suffering
    This time around I realized that the raccoon was free from suffering now. It's a shame its life had to end like that- it was blameless; humans built roads in the middle of his ancestor's forest. Progress and technology broke that raccoon's legs and took his life tonight. But now the suffering has ended for it. I mourned the raccoon and the way […]

    ust a quick observation before I run: I jumped from watching 1980's pro wrestling to the 1991 Survivor Series because WWE put up the whole PPV online for a limited time. It never fails to amaze me how much things change. It was like I was in a time machine from 1987 to 1991... […]
